Fans Arriving at Nissan Stadium Walk Through
Evolv Express® Screening Systems, No Longer Having to Remove Items
from Bags or Pockets
Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV), the leader in weapons detection
security screening, today announced a partnership with the
Tennessee Titans to provide a more enjoyable, frictionless, and
safe experience for fans. The National Football League (NFL) team
is using the company’s AI-based weapons detection screening system,
Evolv Express, to screen fans as they arrive at the stadium for
games and events, without requiring them to stop or remove items
from their pockets or policy-compliant bags.
The Tennessee Titans welcomed fans back to Nissan Stadium at
full capacity this September, with safety, security, and premier
experience a top priority for the team.
“Gate entry is our first opportunity to impact the fan
experience at Nissan Stadium – it sets the tone for the remainder
of the visit,” said David Haywood, the guest safety director for
the Tennessee Titans. “For us, it was vitally important to find a
way to allow for fast, convenient entry while prioritizing safety
and security. When we sat down as a team and reviewed Evolv’s
systems and the experience they have enabled at stadiums and venues
across the country, we knew they would be a great partner for us,
and we’ve seen marked improvements in our entry process since.”
Evolv Express® uses powerful sensor technology with proven
artificial intelligence (AI) to provide safer, more accurate threat
detection at unprecedented volumes and speed of entry. Earlier this
month, the introduction of Evolv Insights™ 1.3 ushered in a new
chapter of Evolv’s quest to expedite its customers’ venues digital
transformation and post Covid-19 fan requirements. An industry
first, security staff can use historical screening data to make
predictions about throughput with the goal of improving the fan
experience while making the stadium more secure.
Prior to installing Evolv, walk-through magnetometers and
hand-held wands required 280 security personnel to work the gates.
Since implementing Evolv Express, the team has reduced the number
of security personnel needed at the gates by 66%, freeing them up
to provide critical security monitoring outside – and throughout –
the stadium. The speed of entry is equally impressive.
“Organizations like the Tennessee Titans are recognizing that
fans should not have to sacrifice experience for safety,” said
Peter George, CEO, Evolv Technology. “Finally, NFL fans are able to
gather back together after a year of capacity limitations,
isolation and health concerns – and they should be able to enjoy
doing so safely, from the moment they arrive at the stadium until
the clock ticks down.”
Evolv’s innovative security screening technology has been used
to enhance safety at a number of major sporting events in 2021,
including the U.S. Open Golf Championship, and it is part of the
state-of-the-art fan experience at Lower.com Field, the brand-new
home of the Columbus Crew in Major League Soccer.
In addition to the Tennessee Titans, Nissan Stadium is home to
Tennessee State University football, college football’s Music City
Bowl, MLS’ Nashville Soccer Club and hosts major concerts and other
sporting events, including the WWE Summer Slam in July 2022.
